Bratronice Château is a historic manor house in the South Bohemian village of Bratronice, built on the site of a medieval fortress dating back to the 14th century.

In the early 17th century, the fortress was transformed into a Renaissance château by Jan Horčice of Prosté, and later modified in Baroque and Classical styles during the 18th century. The château forms part of a larger historic estate that includes a chapel, former farm buildings, a park, and a courtyard.

Notable architectural features include a Renaissance portal with family coats of arms, vaulted interiors, and a distinctive mansard roof added during later renovations. Over the centuries, the property belonged to several noble families, including the Vratislavs, Lažanskýs, Battaglias, and later the Lobkowicz family.
